WHAT MAKES US THINK WE’RE DIFFERENT?

Let’s face it, advice on how to run a business isn’t very hard to come by. Two minutes on an internet search engine will turn up more information than you could get through in a month. Most government service offices have mountains of literature on how to run a small business, and it’s all free. What makes us think we have answers you couldn’t find in those other places?

There are two responses to that question.

FIRST

-The challenge isn’t where to get information, it’s how to pull the relevant information from the tidal wave that is available to you. Somewhere among the thousands of web-search results is your answer, but you may have to read through a lot that doesn’t matter to you in order to find it. You probably have straightforward questions that want straightforward answers.

SECOND

-The text book advice doesn’t represent the building industry. Most business training is aimed at conventional business and overlooks critical demands of the building industry, where the most difficult management challenges lie.

So we address the world you live in. Does that make us unique?

Not entirely. There are other services like business coaches or industry networks that offer a focus on construction. In fact, we think they can bring great benefits. But they aim for an ongoing relationship and long term initiatives. At the right time those things have value but you might not want someone in your hip-pocket just now. You might want to start by understanding what makes any business tick. When you know that you can make better judgments on where (or even whether) your business needs more attention.

Above all though, we think that you can accomplish a lot and we think you can do it quickly. Our conviction is that if you’re willing to invest the time and the fees to attend one of our courses, you need to see a benefit the first day back on the job, and continue to see benefits from there. See our guarantee to gauge how serious we are about that.

We aren’t the only source of advice. Quite possibly we aren’t the last source of advice you’ll need or want. We will give you direction you can act on now. We will help you sort your priorities, answer some nagging questions, and help you focus on where you need to be in the business. You will know your business better after two days with us.
